So Yahoo finally got back to me after I emailed saying that I thought suspension for a first offence was harsh and here is their response.

We appreciate your inquiry about your suspension from Yahoo! Answers and/or the deactivation of your Yahoo! ID. We reviewed your case, and decided that your account is not eligible for reinstatement.

Unfortunately, you will not be able to recover any information within this account. Should you decide to continue using Yahoo! products in the future, we hope that you will comply with our Yahoo! Terms of Service and any product-specific guidelines.
Isn’t that nice of them. No warning just instant ban. And they still have yet to tell me exactly which rule it is I broke since I cannot find anything when I went through their guidelines or Terms and Conditions.

Just another reason why Yahoo! Answers is a waste of web space.
